10:19 PM, Tuesday, November 8th. I am going to bed. It is my prediction that Donald Trump will be the next President of the United States.
He won surprising numbers of votes in Florida, North Carolina, Georgia, Indiana, Wisconsin, and, let me say, Michigan.
I am slightly surprised by his apparent loss in Pennsylvania. Apparently I didn't know PA as well as I thought I did.
New Hampshire, Nevada, and a single Congressional district in Maine remain too close to call. I will assume that Hillary Clinton wins all of them, bringing her Electoral College vote total to 265.
I predict that Donald Trump will win 273 Electoral College votes and the Presidency of the United States.
Well, he did it! Amazing, and to me quite surprising! I suppose we'll see what happens next, as any news organization or pundit worth their salt was wrong with so many things. Polls aren't worth the paper their written on, and my friend the country will go on. I'm just glad I didn't promise to eat my hat, do a naked mile, or any sort of stunt.
